- Mesa recipe: re-add patches = ["P4-virgl-redox-disk-cache.patch"]
(was dropped from recipe during iteration)
- README.md: remove links to 4 deleted docs (COMPREHENSIVE-OS-ASSESSMENT,
RELIBC-COMPREHENSIVE, RELIBC-COMPLETENESS, DESKTOP-STACK-CURRENT-STATUS)
- Point to CONSOLE-TO-KDE v4.0 as the single canonical plan
Mesa now builds with -Dgallium-drivers=swrast,virgl for Redox target.
Fixes:
- CFLAGS: -Dstatic_assert(...)= nullifies Linux-drm.h static_assert
calls that conflict with Mesa util/macros.h redefinition on Redox
- virgl_screen.c: disk cache disabled for Redox (dl_iterate_phdr unavailable)
- bits/safamily-t.h: provided to cross-compiler toolchain sysroot
Build output:
- usr/lib/dri/virtio_gpu_dri.so — virgl DRI driver
- usr/lib/dri/swrast_dri.so — llvmpipe software renderer
- usr/lib/dri/kms_swrast_dri.so — KMS software renderer
- libEGL.so, libGLESv2.so, libgbm.so — with virgl support
- 80MB stage.pkgar (vs 63MB swrast-only)
This enables hardware-accelerated 3D rendering in QEMU via
-device virtio-vga-gl with virgl, using the virtio-gpu display
driver in redox-drm. The full stack for QEMU testing is now:
QEMU -device virtio-vga-gl
→ redox-drm virtio driver (KMS/GEM/pageflip)
→ Mesa virtio_gpu_dri.so (virgl gallium)
→ libEGL/libGLES2
→ Wayland compositor
→ KDE Plasma
Mesa now builds with -Dgallium-drivers=swrast,virgl for Redox target.
Fixes:
- virgl_screen.c: wrapped disk cache creation in #ifndef __redox__
(build_id_find_nhdr_for_addr uses dl_iterate_phdr — unavailable on Redox)
- bits/safamily-t.h: provided to cross-compiler toolchain sysroot
Durable patch:
- local/patches/mesa/P4-virgl-redox-disk-cache.patch (25 lines)
This enables hardware-accelerated 3D rendering in QEMU via
virtio-gpu + virgl. Mesa EGL/GLES2/GBM now support the virgl
gallium driver alongside llvmpipe software renderer.
63MB pkgar artifact with virgl support.
Platform prerequisite status:
- Qt6::Sensors: BUILT (v6.11.0, 520KB pkgar, dummy backend)
- libinput: BUILT (v1.30.2, with libevdev v1.13.2 + linux-input-headers)
- QML/Quick JIT: still disabled on Redox (blocks real KWin binary,
kirigami, plasma-framework)
KWin: now attempts real cmake build with Sensors + libinput deps
enabled. Falls back to redbear-compositor shim on cmake failure
(QML/Quick gate). Previously kwin was pure stub — now it's a
bounded build attempt with fallback.
Enabled in config (new this session):
- qt6-sensors, libevdev, libinput, kdecoration, kf6-kcmutils
Previously OOTB dependencies now resolved:
- libevdev → libinput → KWin real build path opened
- linux-input-headers → libevdev → libinput chain
- qt6-sensors → KWin Sensors dependency satisfied
- plasma-workspace: stub deps deferrable, not unresolved blockers
- knewstuff/kwallet: deferrable (not blocking plasma builds)
- make all vs make live distinction for rebuild
14-line durability patch adds #if QT_CONFIG(opengl) guards
around createEglWindow, createPlatformOpenGLContext, and
nativeResourceForContext functions that use OpenGL types.
Patch applied during source extraction (not inline Python).
Verified in QEMU: compositor runs, no exceptions, DRM active.
Greeter reaches 'compositor ready, launching greeter UI'.
All canaries present. Boot completes to login prompt.
Qt6ShaderTools cmake function is not available in our cross-compilation
setup. Added -C preload with no-op stub function to allow cmake
configuration to proceed past shader compilation calls.

Add three relibc patches (42 total) to close QtNetwork-critical socket gaps:
- P3-inet6-pton-ntop: AF_INET6 address parsing/formatting with RFC 5952
shorthand, IPv4-mapped suffix support
- P3-tcp-sockopt-forward: forward IPPROTO_TCP getsockopt/setsockopt to
scheme daemon instead of hitting todo_skip
- P3-dns-aaaa-getaddrinfo-ipv6: AAAA DNS record queries, lookup_host_v6,
dual-stack getaddrinfo with sockaddr_in6 entries
Also fix P3-tcp-nodelay to use sys_call_wo + from_raw_parts (const) in the
SOL_SOCKET setsockopt fallback — setsockopt sends data to the kernel, not
reads from it.
The 17,046-line redox.patch monolith is no longer referenced in the base
recipe. All 27 individual P2 patches are now listed explicitly in
recipe.toml with symlinks to local/patches/base/.
Coverage gap closed: ixgbed/src/device.rs was the only file not covered
by any individual patch. Added P2-ixgbed-error-handling.patch for the
10GbE Intel driver error handling (println → log::info/warn/error).
Build verified: CI=1 make r.base completes successfully with the new
patch list. The monolith file is preserved as backup but no longer applied.
Enforce that every source-tree edit must be mirrored to local/patches/
and wired into recipe.toml in the same session. Apply the policy
retroactively to userutils res/issue and res/motd (Redox → Red Bear).
relibc select_epoll() forced timeout=0 when any FD doesn't support epoll
(e.g. TTY on Redox), causing busy-loop. Poll with 100ms interval instead.
Also add stdint.h to signal/cbindgen.toml sys_includes so signalfd_siginfo
struct types (uint32_t, int32_t) resolve without build errors.
Phase 3 input chain wiring:
udev-shim: when scheme:evdev is registered (by evdevd), probe for
event0..event7 devices and create /dev/input/eventN nodes pointing to
scheme:evdev/eventN. This bridges evdevd's evdev devices into the
/dev/input namespace that libinput and compositors expect.
libinput: remove -Dudev=false and add libudev-stub as a dependency.
The libudev-stub recipe provides libudev.so that reads from scheme:udev
(udev-shim), giving libinput a working udev enumeration path instead of
stub functions that return NULL.
Input chain is now: hardware → /scheme/input → evdevd → scheme:evdev →
udev-shim → /dev/input/eventN → libudev-stub → libinput → KWin.
Upstream relibc netdb DNS lookup has two bugs exposed by Rust 2024 edition
strict unsafe handling:
1. packet_data is moved into Box::via into_boxed_slice() but the retry
loop tries to call packet_data.as_ptr() on the moved value. Use the
already-created raw pointer packet_data_ptr instead.
2. close() is a safe function in relibc, so wrapping it in unsafe{}
triggers unused-unsafe (promoted to error by -D unused-unsafe). Remove
the unnecessary unsafe blocks around close() calls.
Patch carries in local/patches/relibc/P3-netdb-lookup-retry-fix.patch and
is applied via the relibc recipe patches list.
- IOAPIC: enable full IOAPIC initialization on AMD/Intel bare metal,
dual GSI 0/2 timer mapping for platform compatibility, NMI handler
uses raw COM1 PIO writes to avoid mutex deadlock
- HPET: counter validation, graceful fallback to PIT when HPET missing
- PS/2: fix 0xFE RESEND handling in all MouseState variants, add
controller flush/self-test retry/aux port test from Linux 7.0
- ACPI: defer AML evaluation to avoid blocking initfs driver spawn
- VT chain: remove duplicate rootfs service files (inputd, vesad,
fbcond, getty) that were already handled by initfs phase 1 and the
legacy 30_console script from minimal.toml
- QEMU verified: boots to login prompt, 20 rootfs units (was 26),
single login prompt (was double), only 1 expected error (wifictl)
215 fixes across 33 Rust source files replacing unwrap/expect/panic
with graceful error handling in init, all boot-critical daemons,
and the six graphics driver packages. Fixes inverted scheduler
conditions_met() logic that prevented rootfs from mounting.
- Use full 40-char commit hash in base recipe.toml so the cookbook's
caching logic correctly recognizes already-fetched sources (short
hashes always missed the cache, causing patches to re-apply on top
of already-patched source).
- Add git clean -fd before git reset --hard in fetch.rs so untracked
files from previous patch applications are removed before re-patching.
- Remove ehcid/ohcid/uhcid from base-initfs BINS list (same fix as
base recipe, these drivers don't exist in the current upstream).
With these fixes, redbear-live-mini builds and boots to login prompt in QEMU.
Pin the base source to commit 463f76b9 so that redox.patch and our
P2 patches apply cleanly. Remove ehcid/ohcid/uhcid from BINS since
they don't exist in this upstream version.
